In-School Programs

Aspire for Higher is a not-for-profit grassroots organization founded in 2013 that provides athletic and leadership programming for youth 4 to 14 years of age. Basketball, Soccer, and Football are our core sports. We offer expert instruction to help your child improve through game-based learning. At A4H, we believe that recreational sports are an important part of every child’s development and we make it our top priority to deliver a truly memorable experience.

Mission

We use comprehensive sports based programming as a vehicle to engage youth from all communities to foster their growth and development into healthy adults, community leaders and responsible citizens.

Vision

Our vision is to implement a social inclusion framework where young people can develop, learn and play in a context that is responsive and supportive of their needs, aspirations, and interests.

Values

​At A4H no child is turned away due to financial circumstances. As an organisation we are committed to ensuring all children have the opportunity to play and benefit from sport participation. Families unable to pay for programming are invited to apply for our internal subsidy programs.

More Than A Game

Every member of the A4H leadership team has experience as a varsity student-athlete playing University sport at the highest level in North America. It is through our experiences that we understand the benefits of sport reach far beyond the impact on physical well-being. We believe in a holistic approach to child development which is reflected in our programming pillars.
